I do not consider myself a typical “lawyer” that you might hear jokes told about. My main career objective is not to make every dollar I can. Rather, I am driven by the purpose of being an advocate for those I represent. In the majority of cases that I see, whether it be an individual who has been seriously injured, or someone who has lost a loved one, my client has come to me to solve a problem that will affect the rest of his or her life. I am honored and humbled by that responsibility, and I do not take it lightly. I strongly believe that the profession of lawyer should be treated as a noble endeavor, with the cornerstone principles being compassion for your client and zealous advocacy on their behalf. A lawyer should do what is best for their client in every situation. Many times that involves not only going to court, filing law suits, or arguing before a jury, but it also involves providing a sympathetic ear, being a true counselor, and providing sound advice about life in general.In short, my goal is to serve my clients as an advocate in every sense of the word. I want to truly be in their corner, and fight their fight with them. The most important things in my life are my faith in God and my family. I truly believe that God has a hand in my life, and I am grateful for that fact every day. I am married to the most beautiful woman I know, Kelly. Our children, Noah, Grace, Avery, and Jack are the joy of my life, and I do everything in my professional life with an eye toward making my family proud to say that “Daddy is a lawyer.”

I concentrate on general/commercial litigation, criminal defense (including white-collar), and personal injury matters, but have experience handling financial industry regulatory issues, government enforcement defense, financial industry contractual disputes, professional licensing defense, and insurance coverage matters as well.  I have extensive courtroom experience (over thirty cases to verdict) and have gotten results for clients through mediation, arbitration, and dispositive pretrial motions.

I chose my practice because I want to use my knowledge to ensure that all people are treated equally and with dignity.  I specialized in civil rights law for eleven years as a staff attorney for the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, where I worked on thousands of civil rights cases.  I also regulary dealt with all aspects of employment discrimination law and the constitutional rights of criminal defendants.  I started the Caviness Law Firm in 2018 because I believe that I, together with my clients, can make a difference in St. Louis and because I wanted to get off the sideline and into the fight for equal treatment and the preservation of our constitutional rights.  I look forward to working on your behalf.. Free consultations.  Sliding scale available for those unable to afford my hourly rate.. The choice of lawyer is an important one and should not be based solely on advertising.

I bring a specialized background to the practice of injury law and litigation.  After graduating from the University of Missouri, I spent several years practicing personal injury law for a high volume, established injury firm in downtown St. Louis.  Thereafter, I spent over four years on "the other side", working as a catastropic accident attorney for a St. Louis-based commercial transportation insurance company.  While there, I led trucking/transportation companies through accident litigation nationwide, including the resolution of more than 20 multi-million-dollar exposure cases, the largest being a $10.9 million dollar wrongful death settlement in Illinois.  In the process, I learned how insurance companies investigate accidents and how they analyze the value of a case.  While my specialty is truck and transportation accidents, I also have significant experience handling auto, premises liability, slip and fall and workers' compensation accidents.  I also have experience advising on minor criminal matters, estate planning and business litigation.

I believe every client deserves great representation.  I strive to be diligent and thorough on every case.  No matter the size of your case I would love the opportunity to help you get the representation you deserve.  Whether you or a loved one has been injured or is in trouble with the law my law firm can help you.  Call me 24 hours a day to discuss your case and how I can help you.
